The recent judgment of Allahabad High Court in which the apex court ordered demolition of two residential towers of Supertech's Emerald Court project in Noida has caused great concern among the flat buyers and had been an eye opener for the builders as well as the local authorities.

In the past three to four years there
were many incidents where the builders were breaking the laws. The
biggest concern is that, everything is being done under the nose of
the concerned government authorities.

Focus

Expressing
its concern, Noida Extension Flat Owners Welfare Association (NEFOWA)
has written a letter to the CEO of Greater Noida Industrial
Development Authority (Noida), in which the association has raised
questions on the validity of housing projects in Greater Noida
(West). NEFOWA wantes to know whether these projects in G. Noida west
are following the rules of the law or not?

NEFOWA
also brought up the issue that lakhs of flat buyers who had booked
their flats in Greater Noida West have been facing problems in owning
their dream homes.

The
association mentioned in the letter, "Most of the builders are
using unethical way to cancel the old bookings, to change layout
plans, to change super area and to demand additional payment and so
on. Flat buyers of Greater Noida West wants to know from you that
even after more than three years of the enactment of U.P. Apartment
Act'2010 and U.P. Apartment Rules 2011, how can the builders be
whimsical about the buyers and can cheat them?"

NEFOWA
also asked for an updated report on whether builders of Greater Noida
West are abiding to all the regulations under this act. On behalf of
the other flat buyers in Noida and Greater Noida, NEFOWA has
requested the implementation of the UP Apartment Act as soon as
possible.

NEFOWA
said, "We hope that this time our concern will be acknowledged.
There is great anxiousness among Greater Noida West flat buyers that
whether the projects of Greater Noida West too are under the similar
problem as that of Emerald Court of Supertech."
